PERSONALIZED ACADEMIC ADVISEMENT

What Will I Learn?

Integrate your Christian faith with your social work practice in a creative and supportive learning environment that equips you to master requisite practice competencies while encouraging compassionate service. You will focus your studies on an area that interests you with a concentration in Child and Family or Mental Health.

You will graduate prepared to lead and serve in private and public agencies. If you have an undergraduate background in social work, you may be eligible for the Advanced Standing Program. This will allow you to complete your master's degree in as little as one year.

Hiie Silmere, Ph.D., M.S.W.

Associate Professor of Social Work

I made my way to Roberts via Estonia, Michigan, and Missouri. One of my key roles is to help students apply research into social work practice. I also love to engage them outside of the classroom through research assistantships, conference presentations, or conversations on a variety of topics. It is a joy to work at Roberts where our small class sizes make it possible to get to know all of our students.
